daniel151405241469 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2004 no, you can't download it legally because it is still for sale. i think that once it is abandonware (no updates for 5 years), you would be able to download it, but by that time it will be obsolete......and if you could download it legally then no-one would buy it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deivid1405241470 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2004 uhmmm legally maybe not, but if you are looking for a software to create flash movies and stuff I recommend http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ they have programs to do flash content at really low price compared to macromedia flashmx, the best product is SwishMax and it's cost only USD 99.95 and also they have fully trial versions. If you are looking for something more cheaper they have too, like swish2 and swishlite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes, it is a good substitute for Flash, you can also create stunning animations like in Flash but not one of those very complicated ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some, like older versions of swishmax(I don't know about the new ones), resets the evaluation of the product after you uninstall it. So for example, if you installed swishmax and it expired after 30 days, uninstall it, install it again and you can use it for another 30 days. You can also search in google for flash freewares.
